Main Street Radiology is a
private oupatient Radiology practice operated by Radiology Associates
of Main Street (RAMS). RAMS has provided Radiological services
at various institutions in Queens since 1966.
The first Bayside office at 32-25
Francis Lewis Blvd opened in August 2000, providing a full range of
radiological services. In October 2002, the second Bayside
office opened at 44-01 Francis Lewis Blvd, on the corner of Northern
Blvd.
Currently, there are 19 Radiologists in
RAMS, with subspecialty fellowship training in Neuroradiology, Musculoskeletal
Radiology, Mammography/Women's Imaging, Cross Sectional/Body Imaging,
Nuclear Medicine/PET, Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Interventional Radiology. The
Radiologists are highly trained at the most prestigious institutions,
including Harvard, Yale, Cornell, Columbia, NYU, Albert Einstein, and
Mt. Sinai. Exams performed at the Bayside offices are read by
different Radiologists according to their area of expertise.
The equipment at the Main Street
Radiology is
state-of-the-art, equivalent to those found in major hospitals, and
superior to "office" models found in most other imaging
centers. Latest hardware and software are available to perform
the most sophisticated studies, including PET/CT
fusion, MR
spectroscopy, perfusion/diffusion MR
imaging, breast
MRI, MRCP,
and virtual
colonoscopy.
Reports at Main Street Radiology are
generated using "voice-recognition" technology.
Immediately following the dictation of a report, a printed copy is
generated by a computer, which is faxed and mailed to the referring
physician. The elimination of a transcriptionist significantly
increases turn-around time of reports. In addition, reports may
be automatically e-mailed to the referring physician.
Patients' films may be delivered to the
doctors' offices. Exams are also available on CD.
Physicians may also view their patients' exams directly by clicking

On-site valet parking is available at the
both sites. In addition, there is public transportation in front of both
offices.
The goal of Main Street Radiology is to provide highest quality of care in Queens with
exceptional service to both patients and referring physicians.
